Hello Jeremy, I'd say the easiest solution for you would be to have some Javascript or JQuery function to do this processing.
Then you can associate the execution of this function to the "onsubmit" event of the desired form with JQuery. To add some Javascript code easily to your Koha installation you can use the "IntranetUserJS" syspref. That is of course if you want to customize the intranet behavior with JS, if you want to modify the Opac then you'd have to place your code in OpacUserJS syspref.
